Segway Tour Footwear Question

[MPLsDad]

I have the Segway Tour booked for next week. I planned to just pack my faithful Teva sandals and flip-flops. Will I need sneakers to do the Segway tour? Anyone have any suggestions or insider scoop? Thanks as always!

Yes, you will need to pack your sneakers for use on the SEGWAYs. They are a requirement.

I did the tour in March and all I can say is...WOW. You'll love the tour.

You wouldn't want to wear flip flops or sandals on a Segway. There might be potential for getting hung up when you mount or dismount.

Thanks - when I called yesterday, the lady said there wasn't any specific footwear requirements, but I'm glad I checked here! Thanks for the advice. I'm a little nervous about the tour - I'm a spaz!!!!

If you are used to walking in sandals, I really don't think you will have a problem on the tour. I did it in March, and wore sneakers just to be careful, but if I did it again I wouldn't hesitate to wear sandals (especially Tevas with the rear strap around the heel).

It's a great tour, you'll have a wonderful time!

I think you'd be fine if your sandals have a strap around the heel. I would NOT wear flip flops.

We did the Segway tour in mid-June - had a wonderful time!!

If you have any questions about the tour prior to the tour date, you could stop by Epcot Guest Relations (on the Mickey hand side of Spaceship Earth) and ask - they are the people who give the tour.
